Lyrics

Star Of Wonder

It all started with a star and a great burst of light
The colors all exploded from blue to red to white
Shining out into the vastness and the weariness of time
If you would have been there it would have struck you blind

It all started with a star and ended with a bang
A big ball of gas had to take the outbound plane
And for millions of years under the shimmering sky
There were volcanoes and meteors that refused to pass by

Somewhere in the wake
Of the fires and the heat
A small cell of carbon
Said “Hey, I got the beat!”
Someone named it Life
Though no one was there to see
But that’s how it was
The authorities agree

It all started with a star and when it turned its back
The dinosaurs died and ice covered all their tracks
Spring came and all the creatures tried to look their best
To find someone to put some twigs and feathers in their nest

Star Of Wonder for you I play this guitar
Star of Wonder for you I sing

It all started with a star and it’s still going on
From violet to gold to blue here comes another dawn
And the sky is never empty when the night rolls around
We look into the darkness and know we’re not alone

Star of Wonder for you I play this guitar
Star of Wonder for you I sing
